In Dengzhou Prefecture, after the initial panic, the people in the city have regained their composure on the surface. Although the curfew is still maintained at night, Bai Fuxing Society has not restricted the movement of people, and the people's production and life have gradually begun to resume.
The defensive heavy artillery on the city wall has been installed, and the Renaissance Army has begun to expand to the periphery. Whether it is on the endless sea or on the vast rivers, with steamships and new ship-based artillery, they are completely worthy.
What really needs careful management is the land. Dengzhou Mansion is adjacent to the Bohai Bay. There is almost no need to worry about the defense on the north side. The defense on the other three sides requires some thought.
Li Jie has no plans to continue to expand for the time being. It is expected that in the next two years, the Fuxing Society will focus on the areas surrounding Dengzhou Prefecture. The consumption of supplies for the long-term occupation is a big problem.
It is impossible to rely entirely on external blood transfusions and must be self-sufficient.
In recent years, Fuxing Society has not only invested a lot in industry, but agricultural research has also declined. After several rounds of breeding, the yield per mu of crops has increased significantly. The yield of rice per mu is as high as more than 400 kilograms, and the yield of wheat is slightly inferior. It's less than three hundred pounds.
Even so, the yields of rice and wheat per acre are enough to stand out today!
If they want to resume production, they must protect the fertile farmland outside the city. The Fuxing Society has to expand the defense circle and build forts and large fortresses along the way. It is time-consuming and laborious for others to build fortresses, but these are for the Fuxing Society who masters gunpowder and cement. It's not a big problem.
There is no shortage of people or materials, only time.
Li Jie had already prepared for the worst. If the Li family sent troops to suppress it immediately, they would directly abandon the surrounding areas, beat them hard first, and then gradually encroach on the surrounding areas.
Who would have thought that if there was no news from the Li family for a long time, Li Jie would certainly not be polite. He would go all out and occupy dangerous areas first, build fortresses, and swallow up the area around Dengzhou Prefecture in one fell swoop.
Once the fortress was built, even if Li came with a large army, the Renaissance Army would not be afraid at all. They only needed a few rounds of volleys from the city defense artillery, but they would not dare to step even half a step within the range of the cannon.
With a weapon in hand, Li Jie will naturally not be satisfied with just defense.
The best defense is offense!
The construction of the Mongolian navy is even worse than that of the Jin Kingdom. An armored fleet composed entirely of steamships is enough to defeat the entire Mongolian navy.
Li Jie wants to let Mongolia go down the river without a sail!
It is said that before the troops and horses are moved, food and grass go first. Compared with the time-consuming, laborious and huge loss of road transport, the advantage of water parade is unparalleled. Once control of the river is lost, Mongolia's logistical pressure is bound to increase dramatically.
If it were a world of low martial arts, Li Jie would have been able to seal the outcome of the war with this advantage alone. However, the world of the Southern Song Dynasty was not a low martial arts world. It was probably considered a medium martial arts world, which was still some distance away from the high martial arts world.
After all, the development time of Fuxing Society is too short, and it lacks top-level combat power. The only masters are Wanyan Bupo and Li Jie. The first warriors have sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, but how can it be so good to reach the master's pass first? breakthrough.
According to Li Jie's estimation, in another five to ten years, one's own high-end combat power will be able to catch up, and then the situation will be decisive.
Due to the lack of high-end combat power, Li Jie did not go too far. Although he currently seems to be monopolizing the waterway, this is only temporary.
In order to prevent the Mongols from sending masters to raid the fleet, Li Jie will act with the fleet in the near future.
On the one hand, he wanted to protect his own fleet from unnecessary battle damage. On the other hand, he was preparing to attack the Mongolians. It would be best to attract a grandmaster, as long as he was not a top grandmaster like King Jinlun or Xiao Qianjue. Li Jie is sure to keep the other party forever.
Grandmasters are national treasures no matter which force they are fighting against. Losing one of them is enough to break the opponent's muscles and bones and break their heart. A master is like a crucian carp crossing a river, but there are only a few who can break through to become a grandmaster.
On the Jiaolong, Li Jie stood on the deck and stared at both sides of the Yellow River, thoughtfully.
"President, who will your Tatars send this time?"
Sanli stood on the deck with Li Jie. After a long time, he felt a little bored and couldn't help but joke.
"Who do you want to come?"
Sanli chuckled: "Of course I hope the Tatars will send a grand master, but of course, don't send the old monster Blackwater or the King Jinlun."
"However, the probability of the two of them coming is really low. Jinlun Dharma King is the Mongolian national master, so he will definitely not be dispatched easily. Xiao Qianjue has an extremely weird temperament and has always listened to orders but not propaganda, unless the poor scholar Gong Yangyu appears. In the fleet, otherwise he wouldn’t have come.”
Li Jie glanced at him sideways and said calmly.
"Whether the Tatar faction sends a grand master depends on your performance! Haven't you been training at sea and not doing well? This time your chance to perform is here!"
Sanli patted his chest and said, "President, just watch it. If you don't upset the Tatars this time, I will write my last name upside down!"
Li Jie chuckled: "Three is still three when you turn it upside down."
Sanli smiled awkwardly and quickly added: "Well, mine is my nature."
Li Jie nodded: "That's more or less the same, but let me declare in advance that I will not take action unless the other party sends a grandmaster. If it comes first, no matter who the other party is or how famous it is, I will not take action."
Sanli said with a smile: "It should be so. If we can't figure it out first, my brothers will not have the face to see you in the future."
Li Jie has gone through several lives and has countless magical skills in his mind. A few leaks from the seams of his hands are enough for members of the Fuxing Society to learn them. If outsiders were to know about the martial arts displayed in the Sutra Pavilion of the Fuxing Society, they would probably break their heads. Join the Fuxing Society.
In addition to the martial arts, Li Jie also brought out the secret medicinal bath recipe of the royal family in the first world. Although the core members of the Fuxing Society were old when they joined and their role was limited, they could still provide some assistants. Over time, the same Not to be underestimated.
Sanli, Liu Yu, Su Shan, Sun Yuan, and Wu Keli all broke through to the top one after another. Among them, Liu Yu is the oldest and has the fastest progress. He has already begun to hit the advanced stage. The future is promising. The next grandmaster in the Fuxing Society is very likely. It will be him.
Three queens, Yidu Mansion.
All the spies sent by Yang Miaozhen came back, but naturally found nothing. As early as two days ago, she asked Li Fen to report the situation in Liaozhou Mansion to Kuokuo Buhua.
When Kuokuo Buhua heard that someone actually occupied Liaozhou Mansion, he was immediately furious and ordered to send out troops to attack the rebels on a certain day. After two days of emergency dispatch, the army was ready to go and could set off with just one order!
